There's a scene in the movie French Kiss, filmed in Valbonne, where Kevin Kline (as Luc) and Meg Ryan (as Kate) make their way down a narrow cobblestone street and she exclaims "Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!" That pretty much sums up the town. The small French village of Valbonne, about 15 minutes north of Cannes, was also used for the scene where Luc fights with his brother in the main village square in front of the Hotel les Armoiries, an old seventeenth century building.
